* YouRemindMeOfX: A downplayed example. Though it isn't directly stated, given how May was acting really arrogant with her win streak and glorifying the two ribbons she has won so far, people who pay attention could may as well be reminded of the same thing with Ash back in his Indigo League days when he was starting out. This could may as well be the reason Ash was surprisingly calm with May even after she started yelling at him, as her current behavior in this episode probably reminded him of himself back in his earlier days as a Trainer.
